  Sweden's Jetson 1 Is Powered by Tesla EV Technologies                                                  Source:  Jetson One Your Personal Flying Machine Will the world's #1 electric car manufacturer Tesla invent a flying car? Given CEO Elon Musk's comments, it is very likely.  Recently, Musk promised to equip his much-anticipated new Roadster sportscar with rocket engines to take-off and briefly fly. Now, we've learned that one of the world's hottest eVTOLs (electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles) - Jetson 1 - is powered by Tesla electric car battery cells. Swedish startup Jetson One is the inventor and developer of Jetson 1. This flying car can be ordered, doesn't require a pilot's or driver's license and has zero emissions. The vehicle has sold out its 2022 production line. 85% of the orders are from US customers. Customers can order a Jetson 1 for production in 2023.

  EV 02 Defines Polestar Design & Engineering 02 Will Be a Production Car Swedish EV maker Polestar has a stunning, new electric roadster concept, the 02, that it hopes to put into production for global consumers to purchase.  The 2-seat EV reflects the brand's mission to "communicate technology through design".  CEO Thomas Ingenlath recently said that he wants to make the 02 a production car but he and his team are continuing to refine and tweak the vehicle for superior performance and handling. New Electric Powertrain 02 may be built on a new electric, dual motor powertrain with an electric motor in the front and back of the vehicle that together pump out 870 hp. That is comparable to some Tesla models.  To best Tesla, Polestar is finetuning the 02's steering and handling for superior performance.  Polestar believes that 02 will be a crown jewel in their EV lineup.  Many automotive experts can't wait for the electric Roadster to go into production.

   A World First in eVTOL Commutes                                             Source:  Jetson One The Democratization of Flight The co-founder of Sweden's Jetson flying car company just completed the world's first commute in his company's $83,600 Jetson One flying car.  Tomasz Patan flew the eVTOL (electric, vertical takeoff and landing vehicle) from his home in the hills of Tuscany to his company building that is located 3 miles away.  His commute time was reduced by 88%.  His world-first eVTOL commute showcased how user friendly and time saving flying cars are designed to be.  The company says that Jetson One is fun and incredibly easy to fly.  Their goal is to democratize flying with the widespread use of eVTOLs for mass transportation. Tech Specs Jetson One is powered by 8 electric engines that have a maximum range of 20 minutes flying time.  As an eVTOL, the vehicle can take off from and land on just about any place, including a driveway, making it ultra-convenient.
